  • Patent number: 11703542
    Abstract: An integrated circuit is provided that comprise a receive unit to be tested for receiving an input signal and storing the input signal at a predetermined point of time. Additionally, it comprises a processor for applying an error correction to the received input signal, for comparing the error corrected signal with an expectation value and for outputting an error message when the filtered input signal does not correspond to the expectation value. A power source supplies the receive unit to be tested with an adjustable voltage and/or and adjustable current. An adjustment unit varies the predetermined point in time and the adjustable voltage respectively the adjustable current.

  • Patent number: 8290094
    Abstract: Some embodiments disclosed herein relate to a method. In the method, a duration of a first synchronization pulse is measured. A fixed, predetermined number of ticks are equally spaced at a first time interval over the first sync pulse, regardless of the duration of the first synchronization pulse. A duration of a first data pulse is then measured by periodically incrementing a tick count value at the first time interval during the entire duration of the first data pulse. The tick count value at an end of the first data pulse is then correlated to a first digital value encoded on the first data pulse.

  • Patent number: 7373445
    Abstract: A method for allocating bus access rights is used in a multimaster bus system wherein addresses are explicitly allocated to master devices and each master device is assigned a priority value from an organized priority list of priority values. Requests from at least one master device to use the bus system to access a slave device are received, and the priority values of all requesting master devices are compared. If a sole requesting master device has the highest priority value access to the respective slave device is granted to that master device. If a plurality of requesting master devices have the same highest priority value access is successively granted to the requesting master devices having the same highest priority value on the basis of the address allocation of the master devices.

  • Patent number: 7305512
    Abstract: A programme-controlled unit comprises a crossbar with a multiplicity of ports, a multiplicity of devices which are connected to the ports of the crossbar and can exchange data via the crossbar, and debug resources for detecting the events and states occurring in the programme-controlled unit. The programme-controlled unit described can be characterized by the fact that the ports of the crossbar comprise a diagnostic port, that the addresses, data and/or control signals which are transmitted between two other ports of the crossbar are additionally also supplied to the diagnostic port, and that the debug resources are connected to the diagnostic port of the crossbar.
